To all religious people:?

It helps if I know what the plan is...and least today's chapter

The bible is the express will and word of God and I know from experience I can rely on that....having that foundation makes the execution of the plan that much easier

The purpose of this life is to determine your eternity

80 short years.....and you can live forever, or be screwed forever

Some people are like stones in a creek, they can be surrounded by water, but it never penetrates

Just because God has a plan for you doesn't mean you're going to follow it. If you don't read the Bible and develop spiritual awareness, you're not likely to discern what the plan is.

For a Christian, God's Word is an instruction manual authored by our Creator on what His plan is and what our place in that plan is...IF we choose that. "Consent of the governed" is from God's Word. In Exodus 19:4-8 KJV and Exodus 24:7 KJV, God extends an offer to the people of His blessings and His protection IF they agree to His terms and IF they consider Him faithful and have faith that He keeps His Word. No one, except for Jesus Christ, can live by all The Law perfectly, though. So, when we fall short on our end of the agreement/covenant, God paid an awesome price to enable us to stay in Covenant with Him through Jesus Christ. "Whosoever believeth in Him" John 3:14-21 KJV is a condition to accepting His offer.

Whether the offer to 'seek' Him and His will in His Word is accepted or not, everyone is accountable to Him for their decisions. Romans 14:12 KJV So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

2 Corinthians 5:9 KJV Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

You read the bible to understand and study Gods rules. You cant live a life without sinning, God will forgive if you truly regret. I am no slave of God, I consider him an "ally", sort of. I am both for and against his rules, I agree on some, while there are others i dont agree on at all. I do as I please, God come and go.

By reading The Scriptures, We know what that plan is. It's part of how he shows us his will. It makes more Sense than all life coming from lifelessness by itself,by magic. Like Evolution.

God has a plan for me - but it's up to me to follow it!

god promises that if you do what he says he will reward you immensely in the afterlife. I'm not sure what other branches of Christianity say, but the one i believe in says that you will become god if you can be like him.

God's plan for you is to be HAPPY, to be at PEACE, for YOU TO KNOW that HE LOVES YOU UNCONDITIONALLY by KNOWING HIM, LOVING HIM & HAVING FAITH & BELIEVING IN HIM so you can CO-CREATE your world (what ever it is you want to create) with Him EASIER & not be so stressed! That's His plan for EVERYBODY... but because he LOVES all of us so much, he gives us all FREE WILL to choose to KNOW HIM & WORK WITH HIM or WE CAN CHOOSE TO TRY TO DO EVERYTHING without His Help & KNOWLEDGE of HIS Love & of HIS PEACE & JOY. YOUR POWER IS IN YOUR ABILITY TO CHOOSE, either way! SO HOW'S THAT WORKING FOR YOU.... going through life without GOD's LOVE & HELP??? Because He can't HELP you WITHOUT your PERMISSION, by letting Him into your heart & you have to pray & ask Him for help.... YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE HIM! That is why having personal relationship with him, like your personal BUDDY is so important, so you can talk to Him anytime. LIVING WITHOUT GOD & TRYING TO DO THINGS BY YOURSELF SUCKS!!! IT'S HELL! Believe me... BEEN THERE, DONE THAT! It's lonely, scary, & feel so all alone! Once I GOT GOD... I can have PEACE in the middle of a storm, because my FOCUS IS IN HIS LOVE & I KNOW & TRUST HE ALWAYS SEEMS TO HAVE MY BACK! But to put your TRUST ON PEOPLE, that sucks because people lie, they most cannot be trusted, they are unpredictable & crazy! The only place where you will find MENTAL PEACE is WITH GOD!!! YOU WILL NOT FIND IT WITH YOUR FRIENDS or FAMILY... because people come & go & in & out of our lives, companies are only good until they have to lay you off... the only place you can find CONSISTENCY is with God for CALM, PEACE, ETERNAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE & JOY!

Reported for trolling. Get a life sicko.

One does not go "against His wishes," He isn't that stupid.
